You know, I've wondered about that before and was never
successful in
tracking it down, since it always worked even without the
import. Guess
that's biting you now. Have you tried simply importing
_cprequest
inside __init__?

Right; bah. I suck at docs. That's a holdover from old code.
Use
"PythonOption wsgi.startup module::func" now
instead.

So, I've got it working finally. First thing I had to do was
importing
_cprequest in __init__, so maybe someone who has the right
to commit to
cherrypy sources could fix that there.
I also changed the PythonOption the way you suggested and it
works.
However, in my case I HAVE TO provide a funcion after :: on
that line.
If I don't provide :: and write only module name,
modpython_gateway
dies on splitting the arg, because he looks for '::'. When I
keep ::
and write no func name, it dies on a quite peculiar error:

AttributeError: module '/var/www/myapp2/app.py' contains no
''

Dunno what that means exactly...

Next thing is that the 'startapp' function has to have an
argument.
What exactly is it, the request?

Next thing, you have to mount HelloWorld() to '/myapp'. When
you mount
it to '/' and point a browser to http://localhost/myapp,
you get 404.

And the last thing, with _cpmodpy I still get a blank screen
:(

Anyway, I'm glad to see we're making progress with it ;)
